Dear YouTube...

I actively use this feature, as, I imagine, MANY others!!! What in the hell are you doing?

You can add location information to your Tweets, such as your city or precise location, from the web and via third-party applications. You always have the option to delete your Tweet location history. Learn more
You can't customise the message for each upload using ifttt. I write about what each video is about a bit in each tweet on the video edit page.
I honestly have no idea about anything with this whole situation. I have always ignored the video post tweets because I never really cared to see them so I don't care about this situation much and don't know much.
The main issue here is YouTube is saying "generic bot tweets don't engage people", but it's like they don't even know they have their own feature to make it not generic. It's the usual YouTube thing where they make their own feature sound worse than it is to justify removing it.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
